Vintage 1950's Wicker Basket Purse Handbag Weaved Clam Shape Black Handles. This vintage basket purse belonged to my mom and was purchased in the 1950s. It was a favorite of hers and the handles and closing straps wore out and were replaced with the black leather, which shows some light wear, see pics. The bottom of the purse has the original leather straps. Inside of purse has brand and location purse was made tag. The cloth lining is well worn has holes, see pics. She took very good care of the purse, and the exterior wicker is in excellent condition. Let me know if you have any questions!
